What coaching clients are saying
A treasure to find
“From every session I come away feeling understood with lots of new tools to facilitate each new experience I encounter in both corporate life and personal life. Claudia has a wonderful ability to enable self-learning, she asks the best questions which guide you through to clarity. From our sessions I have learned that I can frame my own narrative, the story we tell ourselves is important as is remembering to tell it in a kind way. I couldn’t recommend Claudia enough, what a brilliant coach and treasure to find.”

Tech professional Valeria talks about her career coaching experience with Claudia Geratz, Coach for Tech Professionals in Ireland and Europe. Watch the full episode of the Why I Left podcast.
I really appreciated Claudia's approach to coaching and her willingness to naturally adjust activities in a more visual and creative way to suit a more neuro-divergent brain. She made sure I set objectives at the start of each session which really helped me focus and create the structure that I was lacking.

"Transitioning from Tech to Sustainability felt overwhelming, but the career coaching sessions were perfectly tailored to my needs. The integration of embodiment exercises, drawing, and physical activities was crucial for my progress. These sessions exceeded my expectations, helping me confront fears and make informed decisions. I'm now confident, equipped with a personalised toolset, and proud of my emotional awareness. I know the steps to take and have clear, achievable goals. I've connected my mind to my body, working in harmony to navigate this new path."

“You have no idea how much you have helped me. You are a magician! I don’t know how you do it, but you made the impossible possible: I have a new job in the career I wanted to have the courage to develop into.“

“I chose Claudia as my coach because of her mix of scientific, academic and practical coaching experience. This proved to be most valuable when working with her. I particularly appreciated her courageous coaching style. She was not afraid to challenge me in some difficult topics, areas where I was struggling or where there was discomfort. She also has access to very useful tools that helped me in the moment, while also building a thread of understanding that we referred to repeatedly and developed throughout our work together.”

— First-time leader in Tech Industry, County Kildare, Leadership Coaching
“I worked with Claudia to find techniques for channelling hope and not getting trapped in despair and hopelessness. Claudia taught me to respect my feelings, to take them seriously and give them space. I had never heard of someone talking about feelings in this way before and it truly has changed the way I relate to myself. It doesn't take away the pain that I feel about our world. But by letting my feelings be seen and heard I am not resisting them anymore and so the pain softens somewhat.”
— Climate Anxiety Coaching, London, UK
“Before coaching I was waiting for other people to hand me the opportunities I wanted. I now realize that I have the agency to make positive changes in my life at any moment. This is a learning that has helped me take more action in areas beyond my career as well and I'm very grateful to have learned it!”
- Emma Loewe, Environmental Journalist, New York, USA
“The work we do can ask a lot of us. We all bring great passion for the cause and want to help people. Stress and burnout are real risks for our team members. Understanding our strengths has helped us to find a better balance, to improve mental fitness and recognise when we need rest to recharge.”
- Team Lead Red Cross Ireland
“I am so so happy that I found you! I love the different perspectives, your summarising and how you show me the positive angle of the challenges as a leader.”
— Senior Leader in Tech, County Meath, Leadership Development Coaching
“I worked with Claudia to develop a holistic approach to personal and professional growth. I have experienced burnout in the past and it was important for me to develop strategies to find a sustainable balance between work and other life domains. The biggest learning for me is that it’s not about what job I have - it’s about how I approach my job. I love my job more since I prioritise self-care. The strategies I learned are not about a one-time fix, it’s more an ongoing process, a way of being, that protects my wellbeing. Others pick up on that change too, I sprinkle more positive vibes around the team.”
— IT Professional, Dublin, Ireland, Career Coaching
“Working with Claudia was a great experience. There’s a credibility aspect to her experience. It made me confident that the coach I was working with knew and understood our world, as well as the challenges we face.”
— Heather Thompson, Head of Customer Success, Dublin, Ireland
“I spent the last 10 years in my career trying to uncover and mitigate blind spots instead of focussing on my strengths. This mindset shift is a game changer and gave me a great sense of confirmation.”
— Laura, People Lead at LinkedIn in Ireland
“The deep reflection about myself was not always easy, but it helped me realise my potential for future growth and development, both as an individual and a working professional.”
— Eva, Director of Success, Madrid, Spain
An excellent creative workshop
“The feedback from the team was so positive! What stood out: I loved how you crafted the questions around wellbeing at work theory, I thought it made them really powerful and impactful questions. And people unmuted and spoke up which was great. It was just really an excellent session. Thank you!”
